The Men's club throw (category B) was one of the events held in Athletics at the 1960 Summer Paralympics in Rome.

There were only three competitors; all three therefore won a medal. France's Barbier (full name not recorded) achieved a throw of 38.24m, taking a clear lead for gold.[http://www.paralympic.org/Sport/Results/results.html?eclass=B&sport=athletics&competition=1960PG&gender=m&discipline=&event=Club "Rome 1960 Paralympic Games: Athletics: Men's Club Throw B"], International Paralympic Committee.
